that reduced the wifi force, thus detecting less wifi networks.
Running without that "fix" the notebook detects more wifi networks,
seams like the antenna have more force.
You keep talking about "antenna force". What does that mean?
When i say that to refer to the machine power to capture, the power of
the wifi card to detect networks.
That patch keeps your device from running forever at a maximum of 1 Mbps by
adjusting the initial gain of the RX amplifier. You may reverse it if you
want so that you can detect more APs when you scan; however, most people
prefer to get better performance from the device. That patch will not be
reversed.
I see.
As to the problems with power saving, I cannot fix a problem if I cannot
duplicate it. The locking in that section has been reviewed by several
people, and there are no glaring errors. If disabling power saving makes
your box work, then that is what you need to do. That is why those
parameters can be set at load time.
But isnt strange that the wifi driver can interfere in the keyboard
when typing? and also be capable to interfere with the pointer device?
